Singles Match for the AEW World Championship & Dynamite Diamond Ring
MJF (c) vs. Ricky Starks

AEW Trios Championship - Best of 7 Series
Death Triangle lead 2-1
Death Triangle (c) vs. The Elite

Ruby Soho vs. Tay Melo

The House of Black vs. TBD

Chris Jericho vs. TBD

Since it hasn't been pre-announced yet (there's still time) I'm thinking Chris Jericho's opponent will be a surprise. No idea who it could be but I'm deciding to raise my expectations since Winter is Coming is usually their big blow off show before they phone it in until mid-January.

Prediction: Adam Cole.

As for House of Black, I'm thinking they announce their opponents before the show starts, or when they come on the air.

Prediction: newly-crowned ROH Six-Man Champions The Embassy, or they face Dalton Castle & The Boys and squash them before being confronted by The Embassy.

Jericho opponent may be PCO he said he wanted to fight him twice in the Ring of Jericho reign but always had conflicts in schedule.

If Tony Khan has any sense at all, he'll book this absolute dream match:

Brian Cage vs. jungle Boy's been added to the show.

Hmmm so that rules out The Embassy as HOB's opponent.

Should be a good match too. Wonder if we see Jungle Boy get saved when Cage & co. eventually beat him up. Who's gonna join Jungle Boy in a trios match!?

CUE THE ROUNDBALL ROCK!!!

When/why did the Elite start using Kansas as an entrance theme?

Since Full Gear.

Shit Nick Jackson might be legit hurt.

The used it for their return at Full Gear and the reason is because The Young Bucks used it as their entrance theme when they were kids and wrestled in their backyard. They called themselves The Wayward Sons. No I am not making this up. Guess they finally convinced Tony to give them the rights.

They will still have their usual themes when they wrestle separately but as The Elite this is their theme now.

But then again, it could all be part of the long-term story arc of the series.

Either it's kayfabe and they go down 3-1 and "overcome the odds" or he's actually hurt and after they tie 2-2 they postpone the final matches.

If Nick can't come back I say make it Brandon Cutler's time to shine

Kayfabe.

They're literally going to make this the "IT WAS 3-1!" meme

If someone comes limping your first move should be a sweep.

No DQ next week baybaayy

tbh i was more intrigued by the thought of leaving it as a hammer match

Elite can dress up as Super Hammer Brothers and Death Triangle can come out to Hammer Time

I think Big Pete just came.

well i guess that's one way to make up for the extra time the unscripted promo took up

was it Big Pete or Baker ?

So the name Big Bill is going to stick it seems.

The Jake Hager likes his hat meme seems less funny when he so obviously leans into it that much

Matt as Mario

Nick as Luigi

Kenny as Peach

Micheal as Toad

Brandon as Yoshi

I don't mind the Big Bill name. It's better than Big Ass.

Gotta say I've never really understood the 'distract the ref when the heel is trapped in a submission hold' bit.

I get it for a pin to be sure, but a hold? Okay, stay up on the apron all you want, I'll just keep wrenching your guy's neck.

SEND HOOK

is Bryan Danielson not there because he's still mourning the loss of William Regal?
